3-4pm Ryan first does a few laps on a bike in the store, and we buy
him his first bike! A specialized yellow 16" bike!

RYan also today first uses the word "money."

Ryan photographing with his VTech KidiZoom 773. Today was the first time I saw Ryan take his camera and set about the house specifically photographing things that caught his eye. (this photo of Ryan snaoped with a Canon SD940.)

Actually, this isn't Ryahn's first day of school, it's his first day of pre-school. It also isn't really the first day, which was two days ago, Wednesday the 2nd of September. (Daddy was away teaching a workshop in Point Reyes two days ago.) This is Ryan's second day of school, but the first day that Daddy saw him go.

Ryan in Dada's car on his way to Legoland. Note the Lamborghini in his hands; "Lamborghini" is the first four-syllable word he's ever tried pronouncing. (Olympus E-P1, 17mm f/2.8, f/4 at 1/160 at ISO 200.)
